Style File: Winter Chic

After a holiday season filled with all the glitz and sparkles a girl could ask for, we’re ready to opt for a sophisticated and chic winter look this month. Of course, cozy winter clothes and the bulk that goes along with them can’t always be called elegant, so we’re on the hunt for some inspiration to create the streamlined vibe we’re looking for! A chic, wintery ensemble is all about sticking with the classics: traditional shapes like puffer vests or anoraks, jewel tones, and crisp, clean neutrals.
